[1.39.5.0] SU16 Beta Survey - Performance (Xbox)

Except new bing maps there is only ONE BIG REGRESSION in this bulit, unbelievable :person_facepalming:
I wait till Tuesday if no progress Im out of this beta. Long time ago I fought it is great idea to incorporate gamers into betas… now I find itmore like a usery and customer abuse, it feels like not a single test comes first on devs end it is just throwing poor builds and poor hotfixes (msfs, tsw) :person_facepalming:

Appreciated

I have opted out, gone to load the sim up and say ā€œupdate needed, but we cant get it at the momentā€ seems i cant play without su16

I just I left beta successfully, after leaving insider the sim need to update itself again to old build (11gb) wait for it.

You need to restart the xbox after opting out in the insider app. Then try to start the sim and it will update back to SU15

It seems that ground textures deteriorate gradually. They’re good at the beginning of the flight, then they look awful after 30-40 mins, even at 39.000 feet…

Will give that a try, thanks.

Hello,

I am currently participating in the Sim Update 16 Beta on Xbox Series S and would like to report a recurring issue.

Most of the time the simulator runs smoothly, but sometimes I experience serious stutters or even a black screen crash near the end of the flight, especially during approach to the destination airport.

One trigger seems to be the map screen inside the cockpit — for example, when I open the navigation map or try to adjust the range scale on the A320neo radar screen (to see more waypoints), the sim can freeze or stutter for several seconds.

In the worst cases, especially during final approach, the screen goes completely black, and I have to force-close the sim.

I hope this can be addressed in the final release. Thank you for your work and for giving us access to test the beta.

Descending into Rotterdam, experienced some stutters and a suddenly Black screens?! haven’t seen one on really long time.
Decided to keep going, maybe the sim can revert the black screens, after about a minute CTD.

I do apologize cause I confused the number of version that works for me, now I ve changed it correctly on the previous post.
The correction is really important cause the devs needs to knows what works and what not works. (plus I 'd like to know why does my SU15 works perfectly now and not before to avoid the issue in future but it’s not right thread and I can’t find right one :head_shaking_vertically:.)
I really hope they delay su16 until it perfectly works, afraid to be forced to got it cause Im finally really enjoying to fly on Su15

Yes I’d have to agree. SU15 at the moment is brilliant. I’ve been switching between BETA and standard build on 2020 and 2024. For me, 2024 is not right either beta or public build. It’s so stuttery it can’t be enjoyed in this state. I try to give it the benefit of the doubt but can no longer.
SU16 beta is also a bit of a mess! I’ve got no idea what they’re trying to achieve with it as SU15 is working perfectly and seems they may break something that is working perfectly well if released in anything like the condition this beta is in.
I haven’t been on SU15 for ages as been concentrating on the beta in my own attempt to feed back as we all are but had my best flights for ages on 2020 SU15. It’s butter smooth, currently looks great and everything works! I would urge the developers to actually question whether it is actually worth the risk of ā€˜upsetting the apple cart’ and cause untold misery to 3rd party developers and their customers. It’s begs the question as to what they are trying to achieve? Hope these concerns are fed back.

I really hope they can crack SU16 and get it back to working as well as the first version of it did pre-WASM, because as good as SU15 is, the last 2 flights I’ve done on it both ended with no runway lights at my destination - and the second one was a short hop from Rome to Basel. First version of SU16 didn’t have this problem and gave me way too much hope
